Acid Burgher - arranged by Isacco Garcia PeveriReview by Laci1971, 03/02/2016 I always try to think positive. Now the best I can write that the remix reached the quality of the original, but it wasn't too difficult. |

Hard Wars - arranged by Pepe Pinapple offlineReview by Boz, 29/01/2016 Great production, in-yer-face drums, perfect instruments to go with the style of music. Unfortunately it's copyrighted to hell and back. |

Parallax Title (Little Jester remake) - arranged by Little JesterReview by Zefrem23, 19/01/2016 To think one of the guys who made 'Reincarnation' (one of my favourite psychedelic dub tunes of all time) has done a version of my favourite C64 theme tune! It's truly a dream come true, you made my day man! |

Suicide Express a la Hawkwind - arranged by JimmoReview by verm71, 04/01/2016 It has the occasional lyric reference, and mid-tune solo which hails back to the original, but the rest sounds a bit thrown together |

Meanwhile the Planet (Fatten Sticazzi Edit) - arranged by DHSReview by SoundHelix, 04/01/2016 Sounds great! This really kicks ass. Love the acid part… Well done, happy to hear more. |

Bruce Lee (youtube vid) - arranged by LukHashReview by PhotonSCX, 02/01/2016 Wet reverb at times, but transforms what is really a soundbite/jingle into a song with enough ideas to make it last. An achievement on its own. 😊 |

Will You remember (Gone) - arranged by MRTReview by LaLa, 30/11/2015 What a wonderful, clean arrangement: not a single note that's wasted, not a single note that's useless. But what really makes this remix is the lyrics: it's a mix of touching eulogy and techno-romance that may not seem so out of place today in the age of smartphones and smart TVs - but this began 30 years ago when it was not fashionable and commonplace to be glued to computer screens. One cannot be NOT moved by the lyrics, and, of course, by the synthesized voice thatsingsit: that unmistakable Commodore speech engine. My only technical note is that I wish the voice was put more in front of the rest of the mix. A remarkable piece of nostalgia. Dziekuje, Tomasz! |

Will You remember (Gone) - arranged by MRTReview by exocytosis, 25/11/2015 Will You Rememberis, simply put, an amazing piece of work - the slew of string instruments in combination with the unmistakebly SID-esque synthesizer sound make for a great C64 cover all by itself. What really puts the icing on the cake and makes this song stand out is how its robot voice manages to convey feelings of despair, sorrow and sadness. With the expected technological singularity mere decades away, counting CPU cycles and juggling IRQs seem like a hazy memory of an age that briefly flashed before our eyes. With the impending society-wide introduction of super evolved computers that will forever change the world as we know it, I can see why our Commodore computers already urge us not to forget them, and plead for us to remember. And I will. I wouldn't be the same person if my great parents hadn't bought me my VIC-20 or my C128. I will remember. |

Falcon Patrol II - arranged by PloughReview by Bronyboy30, 20/11/2015 This is so nice music its brings me back in time its even giving me tears in my eyes. Good job but i hoped for a 2-3 min longer =) But still love it. |

Last Ninja 2 - The Sewers loader (FreeJitsu-Mix) - arranged by wk-oneReview by LaLa, 20/11/2015 I find the intro more promising than the rest of the remix, which at 0:52 becomes just one of many LN2 remixes. There are a few cool ideas lurking in it, though. The most intriguing one is thewhispering voicespart after 2:12, that's very creative. I really want to like this remix so much, but it isn't fleshed out as well as it could've been. |

last ninja 2 - the office - alternative rock - arranged by timmya4000Review by kbilsted, 28/09/2015 The best part is the guitars at the end. Maybe doing another track with more deep end guitar?? |

Out Run - Magical Sound Shower - arranged by Johan AnderssonReview by drm, 13/09/2015 Outrun was one of the great arcade racers of the 80's and although the port to the c64 wasn't quite the experience the music got us closer. There are several Outrun remixes to listen to each vying for thecongratulationsand this one by Johan's is decent - even matching Peter W's award winning effort in terms of production. The guitar rhythm playing is tight and are accompanied by a nice palette of sounds that blend well together. However there is one flaw in this could be gem of a remix - it's far too slow. It's rather like listening to a 45rpm on 33rpm which kills that warm fuzzy adrenaline fueled nostalgia of the original. Maybe remixers spend so much time and effort making the track it begins to sound right and who can blame them after all, it is up to the remixer to dictate the tempo of their productions. Yet in this case it is from a racing game and in my opinion it needs that extra 20-30 bpm added on. In summary it's a great track and I'd urge you to download it if you are a fan of Outrun. I'd also advise that if you have a pitch shift or timestretch app then use it on the track and it really shifts from lo to hi gear… |

Tristesse - arranged by MordiReview by winc, 02/09/2015 When a song keeps playing over and over on my system, and I don't know I have listened to the same thing for 2 hours and that I continually to get goose bumps at the same place each time is the sign of a song that has been put together really REALLY well! You Originally this song was one of the ones I played on SID a lot - but now I am just going to be playing this even more! Great work!! |

Storm Warrior sub. 2 - arranged by MRTReview by Dr.Piotr, 31/08/2015 live play is OK you have to work on the songs they played live already the first results, engage him playing live |

Storm Warrior sub. 2 - arranged by MRTReview by Chris Abbott, 29/08/2015 Not a great start, a bit mechanical, but makes up for it later. Takes quite a while to get to the melodic point, but quite impressed by the solo put over Mark's wonderful but slightly repetitive original. There's a number of ways the dynamism in this could have been improved, but it's still a musically intelligent attempt, and had some great moments, especially in the second half. |

Zappologia (for Sapper) (Zap remix) - arranged by DeesReview by vurtx, 28/08/2015 I really like the odd chord changes in this and it has a certain atmosphere. I never knew the SiD until now so both have been added to my library |

Monty On The Run (I've Heard This Song Before) - arranged by druuReview by McLord, 27/08/2015 This remix is really involving and the part of piano is quite simply brilliant. I liked the first listening. |

Tears From a Blind Eye - arranged by Hank (Lukasz Drzewiecki)Review by nightlord, 11/08/2015 I am honored to have my SID remixed with this much effort and love. I didn't know about the existence of this until 2 days ago and I was blown away with how well youunderstoodthe intentions behind various components from their SID renditions. Kudos: * You completely nailed the feel of the acoustic guitar intro. * You made the 3. 04 - 3. 08 range amazing. The addition of the distorted guitars (which I didn't think of in the original) makes that part so much more intense. * Overall your drums rule Humble suggestion: - Like others called out the mix/mastering could be improved. Especially the bass was difficult to hear in places. I am grateful for this great remix. Thank you so much |

Cybernoid 2 - arranged by Johan AnderssonReview by Touchfrench, 27/06/2015 Great remix of one of my favourite video-game music. Guitars are great. The singed part is not my favourite part but it's ok. |

Magic Disk 64 (90's Euromix) - arranged by Instant RemedyReview by I_o, 02/06/2015 This sound is exactly what I needed. It conjures my Commodore experience without being so modern as to mix the worlds too much. |
|
Flight Path 737 (Riz Mix) - arranged by MontyReview by Benightedjim, 23/05/2015 You could imagine this as the theme tune to a 1970s drama series about a suave pilot flying his 737 around Europe. Tales of adventure, high drama, clandestine affairs, dangerous liaisons and the like. Oh, and bad aviator sunglasses, too. |
|
DeltaSisters (feat. Kermit) - arranged by Puffy64Review by FStarred, 20/04/2015 It's a pity that the registration quality could be done better, btw it's one of the best merge remix I've heard. At 1:17 reminds me of john mellencamp's human wheels song. |
